With produced water injection in the Permian Basin surpassing 5 billion barrels annually—and volumes projected to rise by over 30% by 2028—the need for precise subsurface pressure management has never been greater. Unlike oil and gas extraction, produced water injection alters subsurface conditions basin-wide, affecting all operators. Rising pressures in shallow injection intervals are causing well failures, drilling challenges, and escalating costs, making proactive solutions essential. B3 Insight’s Subsurface Interval Pressure (SIP) product provides a game-changing approach to understanding and managing these pressures. Built on proprietary data and updated monthly, SIP delivers machine learning-powered insights, real-time pressure mapping, and comprehensive analytics to help operators optimize well designs, mitigate risks, and maintain compliance with evolving regulations. From blowouts and casing deformation to operational delays and environmental risks, SIP equips teams with the tools needed to navigate subsurface challenges effectively. Operators leveraging SIP are already seeing minimized downtime, reduced CAPEX, and improved regulatory outcomes. In an environment where saltwater disposal (SWD) capacity is shrinking and regulatory scrutiny is intensifying, collaborative, data-driven pressure management is critical. Don’t let rising pressures jeopardize your operations. Download the SIP product guide today and discover how it can revolutionize your approach to subsurface pressure management in the Permian Basin.

Subsurface interval pressures in the Permian Basin have reached critical levels, driven by water injection volumes exceeding 5 billion barrels annually—a staggering sixfold increase since 2010. Unlike oil and gas extraction, produced water injection alters subsurface conditions over large areas, creating challenges that impact all operators, including increased drilling risks, rising operational costs, and environmental concerns. Managing these pressures is no longer optional—it’s essential for maintaining safety, efficiency, and regulatory compliance. B3 Insight’s Subsurface Interval Pressure (SIP) product redefines the industry standard for how operators address these challenges. Leveraging proprietary data, monthly updates, and advanced AI models, SIP provides monthly pressure mapping and predictive analytics to help operators anticipate risks, optimize well designs, and reduce costs. By modeling and mitigating subsurface pressure risks, SIP empowers teams to tackle challenges like injection capacity, casing deformation, and regulatory scrutiny with confidence. Collaboration is key to tackling basin-wide challenges, and SIP facilitates smarter, more unified decision-making among operators and regulators. With shrinking SWD capacity and increasing regulatory oversight, staying ahead of subsurface pressure trends is critical to maintaining a competitive edge.
